2 mistakes: pick a girl that shares your interests, focus on games you can play together. And they lived happily ever after, beating the crap out of each other in Mario Kart.
Some of these are just popcorn comedies that did their job well enough, or were even meant to be hokey. Meanwhile, I don't see my top travesties like The Crow: Wicked Prayer, Eragon, or the hell that is Sucker Punch. Pardon me, I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Another perspective to consider is that young children are not supposed to wear hard soled shoes because their feet will not grow correctly and it changes the arch. It is healthy for adults to NOT wear shoes all the time, as it allows your feet to spread out and relax to their natural shape, and holistically, the health and alignment of the bones in your feet effect the alignment of the entirety of your skeleton and muscles. I begrudgingly allow elder in-laws to wear their shoes in the house, and then spend the next week sanitizing.
